And an in-depth look at the next Gran Turismo 7, coming March 2022. PlayStation's September 2021 Showcase had a lot of reveals — largely for the PlayStation 5 — and here are the 10 biggest announcements.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2



When: 2023 
Where: PlayStation 5

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will feature Venom (voiced by Tony Todd, from Candyman) as one of the villains, and the first teaser signals more intrigue. While the heroes will have new abilities and suits to deal with those threats. Marvel's Spider-Man creative director Bryan Intihar and game director Ryan Smith return in those capacities on Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

Marvel's Wolverine



When: TBD 
Where: PlayStation 5

Marvel's Wolverine is a standalone game. It's coming from creative director Brian Horton and game director Cameron Christian, who previously worked on Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales. No release date on Marvel's Wolverine because it's “very early in development”.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Remake



When: TBD 
Where: PC and PlayStation 5

Aspyr is best known for bringing Star Wars games to modern systems, including the original KOTOR to Mac and mobiles. For the KOTOR remake, it's brought on RPG veterans and members of the original KOTOR development team.

God of War Ragnarök



When: 2022 
Where: PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5

The sequel will culminate Kratos and Atreus' journey in the Norse lands, as they search for the old god of war Tyr, and try to survive as conflict engulfs the Nine Realms with Ragnarök approaching.

GTA 5 and GTA Online



When: March 2022 
Where: PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X 

The next-gen versions of Grand Theft Auto V have been delayed, Rockstar Games revealed at PlayStation Showcase, though that does mean PlayStation Plus members can continue to take advantage of the free GTA $1,000,000 in-game money each month on GTA Online's PS4 version for a few more months now (until launch in March 2022).

Gran Turismo 7



When: March 4, 2022 
Where: PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 

The GT Campaign mode is back for the next-gen version of Polyphony Digital's next racing game and will take players across Europe, harkening back to the roots of the “Gran Turismo” term from the 17th century. Alongside, legendary circuits such as Trial Mountain and High-Speed Ring are coming back too. Gran Turismo 7 will also expand on designing your car, photographing your car, tuning your car, and, of course, being able to grow your car collection.

Project Eve



When: TBD 
Where: PlayStation 5 

A lone female paratrooper journeys down to a near-future desolate Earth that mankind was expelled from following a battle with invaders called the NA:tives, where you must learn how they attack to be able to counter with “precise timing”. Parrying and evading is crucial in Project Eve, as that will help you build “Beta Gauge (BG)” which you can then use to gain skills like piercing super armor, execute sweeping attacks, or interrupt enemy combos. You can see some of that in the first trailer.
